Small question I've been curious that I doubt anybody knows the answer to. What's that thing on Arino's neck? It looks like a burn mark or something and it's been there since the beginning, but I noticed in the Dragon Buster episode that it was covered up with a band-aid and then it was notably less pronounced in later episodes (maybe, could be my imagination or an effect of low video quality).


Yeah it's a huge mole he's had on his neck nearly all his life. Around that episode he got it surgically removed without telling any of his co-workers. Apparently it took Hamaguchi a while to notice.

I was just thinking with the USA trip DVD coming out, is there a chance of us getting a context of this little clip used during the "Fight! Chief Fighter" music video they gave Arino during the 40th Birthday show?


(The clip is about 15 minutes in the translated compilation video)

I have no idea if this was even from the trip to begin with, so this question might be totally invalid. But, that tree does look a little bit like some that grow here in California.

Rewatched all the quiz episodes. They are all great because of the staff interaction. But Yu Yu No Quiz De GO GO! was the best as there is so much staff interaction. Can't wait to see last season's quiz episode soon.

Really enjoyed the SF 2010 episode, some great humor. The font formatting and color matching for the translations are very well done such as the Game Boy screen.
After the DVD release, do you think an online option of future episodes might be possible?
Something like Amazon streaming or Louis CK's online videos?

Nah, they just have a poo poo-ton of Japanese Maples/Momiji in the north valley. That's probably Japan with a bunch of said trees. They are among my favorite plants because their leaves look like :420: obviously.

I haven't seen GCCX's 2011 live New Years special yet, so this is my first time seeing this as someone uploaded this clip: they brought in a pianist who's famous on NicoNico Video (Japan's Youtube) and he performed a piano medley of all the battle music from Dragon Quest 1 through 9.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwL4GbfCFDU

Arino's comment in the end: "Did Dragon Quest have a 'Make --> Riceball' command?"

You can listen to more of this guy's work on his Youtube account.

I just assumed it was a throw-away clip of Arino just messing around. Fluff they record between trips. In this case him messing with a squirrel.

Either way it was funny within the context of that music video.

We pretty much all did. Which is why we're glad that the upcoming US DVD release will have the original voice overs done by Producer Kan as an option for the Kotaku 12. Along with all the episodes' subtitles being (re-)translated by our team's own zari-gani.

I love how GCCX is embracing it's fanbase, and fans generally, that NicoNico player and getting art done by zari-gani plus other stuff.

I feel like if the show was made in America, this thread would've been pulled down by DMCA already and everybody who helped to spread the show, would've been sued for millions and also fans would be considered as a nuisance, instead of an asset.

Well, yes, if the show was made in America there would be no reason to be subbing it and providing torrent links. Of course it would be.

There would still be reasons for a subbing project, even though you probably wouldn't need it to be subbed.

I just feel that Americans are more hostile with copyright laws, as in japanese seem to be pretty neutral/silent about fansubbing projects.

It's called Tonari no Seinfeld. Yes, like Tonari no Totoro (My Neighbour Totoro).

The Drew Carey Show has also been translated to Japanese. They call it Drew Carey DE Show! in a delightful pun of -desho.

I am not sure why but "My Neighbor Seinfeld" is like the best translated title I've ever heard. I want the original show to be called that now.

On another note, I just watched the Street Fighter 2010 episode (thanks again SA Team!), and in the first ten minutes I recognized it as "that fuckin game my parents got me when I was five instead of Street Fighter II for the SNES." I never got past the eyeball ceiling boss :(

The flying scene was what immediately came to mind for me, and Seinfeld's smile works so well with Totoro's trademark grin so of course I had to draw it.

Regarding Street Fighter 2010, I've always loved how Random Stranger listed its genre as "child disappointer" in the OP.

Well, aside from Jerry's voice, I think they actually did a decent job with the dub. Of course, it's got to be pretty difficult to translate such a jargon heavy show into another language, so I imagine some of those scripts end up pretty different.
